Budgam, May 11: National Conference chief spokesperson and Zadibal MLA Tanvir Sadiq on Monday hit back at PDP leader Iltija Mufti over her remarks on a liquor ban, saying those raising the demand should first recall their own party's past position on alcohol consumption. In Budgam, Sadiq referred to statements made by the PDP's former Finance Minister Haseeb Drabu in the Assembly that alcohol would not be banned during the previous PDP-led government.

The National Conference is completely opposed to drinking and to encouraging it in any manner. We do not want alcohol to be consumed here, he added.

If it's wrong to impose liquor ban on Hindus, how did Gujarat and Bihar do it: Iltija to J-K CM

She was commenting on Abdullah's statement on Sunday that liquor shops were to serve people of those faiths in which the consumption of alcohol was not forbidden.
